Providing care to the highest standard

Geelong Hand Therapy specialises in the comprehensive assessment and treatment of individuals with upper limb injuries and conditions, spanning from the hand to the shoulder.

Their primary goal is to provide the highest standard of specialised therapy to facilitate the recovery process, assisting patients in regaining optimal use of their upper limbs following injury, surgery, or the onset of a chronic medical condition.

Located across two clinics in central Geelong and Torquay, and co-directed by Jane Skeen and Emily McMaster, the dedicated team comprises occupational therapists, administration staff, and occupational therapy assistants.

The team collaborates closely to manage a variety of injuries and conditions, such as fractures, ligament and tendon injuries, wrist pain, burns, osteoarthritis, injuries sustained in the workplace and motor vehicle accidents, and more.

The business maintains strong partnerships with referring GPs and surgeons to ensure every patient receives the highest standard of care post surgery and injury.

Specialities are the fabrication of custom thermoplastic splinting, and wound and scar management.

The occupational therapists are members of the Australian Hand Therapy Association, specialising in advanced hand and upper limb rehabilitation.

Geelong Hand Therapy engage regularly in ongoing education and training to remain at the forefront of its field. Its services encompass a wide range of therapies including splinting, the use of thermal modalities and soft tissue treatment, sensory re-education and cortical desensitisation techniques.

The business accommodates a diverse range of patients, including those covered by private insurance, WorkCover/TAC/DVA, and individuals under an Enhanced Primary Care Plan (EPC).
